Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0834449A2] A bicycle brake includes a fixed member (1) (e.g. a hub axle) having a fixed member axis (X), a hub drum (2) rotatably supported around the fixed member, and a fixed case (20, 40) nonrotatably fixed relative to the fixed member. The braking mechanism includes a brake member (70), a brake operating element (61) disposed radially inwardly of the brake member (20) for pushing the brake member radially outwardly, and a cam member (50) disposed radially inwardly of the brake operating element and coupled to the fixed case (20, 40). The cam member is shaped so that the brake operating element (61) moves radially outwardly in response to relative rotation between the cam member (50) and the brake operating element (61), and the cam member (50) defines a cam member space radially inwardly of the cam member. A rotating case (100) is coupled to the hub drum (2) for rotating integrally with the hub drum (2). The rotating case (100) has a contact surface (111) disposed radially outwardly of the brake member (70) for contacting the brake member (70) for contacting the brake member (70) when the brake member (70) moves radially outwardly. To reduce the axial length of the bicycle brake, a portion of the hub shell (2) is disposed within the cam member space. Alternatively, an attachment mechanism may be used for coupling the rotating case to the hub shell, wherein a portion of the attachment mechanism is disposed within the cam member space. <IMAGE>
